  1. About ready to sell the good old reliable Zona for something in the 24" category. Keep your eyes peeled in the for sale section for my Zona Zip soon!

  2. I'm in the same position at the moment, so I would like to see what advice you get from people.
  3. How does the reach affect the feel?
  4. What would be the best pads to use on a smooth rim with no tar?
  5. Much in the way of Trials in Scarborough, I am going with a friend soon if it looks good. Jack
  6. DC's/Fox's (or any skate shoes) then platform pedals. Works well for me.
  7. Riding through my local town the other day me and about 5 BMXers (as i'm the only trials rider in my area as far as I know) went past a load of pub going 40 year olds. Man 1: its the local BMX crew Man 2: More like the no seat BMX crew. Made me giggle, haha. oh my O_O

  10. progress is slow if not non existent when its wet

  11. Thanks for the link, I have been there before but it mostly only gives how to's. It has thankyou
  12. The idea is that we could make a general rule book to the length of parts and how they affect the bike (such as having a larger wheelbase makes the bike harder to rotate and what the wheelbase is). Or maybe how 20",24" and 26" bikes differ in ease of doing different tasks. When I first looked into getting a trials bike such a thing as this would have helped me get on my way as I had no people to ask for help. :/ And again this situation has arose when thinking about buying new parts for my bike. Also asking for help on the new members chat or another would help me but not help others that will come in the future. I would create this list myself but my knowledge of bikes is limited and probably incorrect. Thank you for taking the time to read.
  13. I have noticed that there are quite a few BMX creators to see if a certain colour scheme would work on a bike. Im interested in this kind of software as i am in the process of designing a new clolour scheme for my bike. I was wondering if there was a similar piece of software for Trials bikes or a web page to create on. I have had a look around on search engines with no succes so far...if you know of any kind of creator im looking for exists for trials i would appriciate it if your shared it with me. Thanks for reading
  14. Pretty much the same as a bmx, allthough the added size makes it feel a bit more controllable i feel. DMR would be a good make to mention, if i was to suggest one it would be either that or a NS. My friends NS suburban is the nicest 24" ive been on by far.
  15. I rode a 24" Saracen for about a year and a half. Its good fun to get into. If your looking to do more dirt that street i would opt for sused forks as oppesed to rigid. Whereas if you were doing street i find rigid alot simpler and overall better. When asking about specific bikes and models somone else should be able to help you with that, as ive only tried a few other 24" aside my Saracen.
  16. Its probably the best place to start buying a second hand bike for £100 IMO. Just uncase you decide trials isnt the thing for you...know what i meen?
  17. Never seen them in a shop before. I got mine of the internet (Zona Zip) and the only problem ive had is the chain tug has broken a few times :/.
  18. Massive gaps just because they look so great even to people who have never even seen a trials bike before.
